Cons...why is Gonzales' lying not important, but Clinton's was?

Question

And don't give me that crap about "lying under oath"...because this administration is doing it, too.

"lefty crow"--that's a good one.....
But I beg to differ on the "no ones cares" aspect of your answer. On Y!A at least, we have "right-ies" bringing up Clinton day after day and night after night! Hey! He's gone; he can't be president again. His wife is a shrill moderate who most people can't stand. He was dishonorable to his wife, but he was a pretty good president. If the Repubs thought he was so bad, why don't they just learn from the lessons taught? But, no, they continue to lie, cheat, try to deny culpabilty, cheat and beat their own wives, abuse children, etc. and then say, "Oh yeah? Well Clinton lied, too." Why not try to be better, especially if they are the self-styled protectors of America's morality?
I agree that Clinton set a very bad example, but what married man ever admits his affairs? When you start messing with the prosecution of "possible" criminal activity, you are walking a very perilous course. (And, it seems that the firings were meant to remove

people who could not be "trusted" to cut Repubs a deal. (And the "Justice" {????} department is defending the firings??????) Seems a bit worse than bjs under the desk, even if it WAS the desk in the Oval office.
We need to get all corruption out of Washington!
And, if I am "emotional", so be it!

Answer 1

It's not important because it seems to bring up yet another seemingly nefarious intent that has been exposed. Whenever someone says anything negative about the present administration and how they try to circumvent the Constitution and the laws, someone is sure to bring up Slick Willy... but won't face the facts nor answer the question honestly without spewing political slogans and nonsensical rhetorical propaganda... go figure. It's nothing more but those who have nothing to say trying to drown out common sense with their ignorance. The White House staffers and Dubya and DICK Cheney do indeed believe themselves to be above the laws, above the Constitution and above the ethics and morals they impose on the rest of us, and the world... hypocracy at the highest order!

Answer 2

I say prosecute him too. I thought that the Bush administration was smart and said no comment to everything though. Perjury is a bad offense that damages are judicial system. If Gonzalez perjured himself, we should go after him with great zeal. Lawyers like Clinton and Gonzalez has a greater obligation to the courts. That is why Lawyers are punished far more whent hey are caught lying under oath.

Answer 3

When did this administration lie under oath?

The US attorney situation has been blown way out of proportion by the democrats in congress. Senator Feinstein herself said four years ago that they needed to do something about Carol Lam.

Still, Gonzales seems to have not exactly been truthful about it, and because of that someone has to go, and he's the prime candidate.

I'm not a convict, but I hope it's okay with you if republicans answer.

Answer 4

I'm a Conservative, in the strictest sense of the word, not like these neo-cons flying all over the place (personally I have more respect for a liberal who practices what they preach than a neo con).

Clinton lied, Gonzales is lying, no difference. Clinton was a pot smoking piece of excrement draft dodger, Gonzales is a la raza belonging piece of excrement who doesn't understand the Constitution.

Answer 5

He didn't do it under oath. Yes it does make a difference. One your are swearing to tell the truth the other just yapping!!
The better question might be why was Clinton force to go under oath and answer question about his sex life. While this adminstration can refuse. NOT just Gonzales but when congress wanted to question Bush and Chenny about 9/11. They refused to go under oath. Why were they allowed to refuse!

Answer 6

I guess you don't believe in innocence until proven guilty. How ironic. And oh by the way, Gonzales doesn't have a lot of support from Republicans.

Your just an emotional person and so predictable.

Lighten up.

Answer 7

Pres vs underling

Answer 8

Clinton lied to guard himself from embarrassment while he grew to become into asked approximately his affair with Monica. He lied in the process the invention section in the civil case delivered by potential of Paula Jones. He grew to become into actually supplied with a sequence of definitions by potential of Jone's attorneys which stated that sexual affair meant "sexual intercourse". the 1st time he spoke back the question of no remember if he had a sexual affair with Monica, he grew to become into telling the very fact. in spite of if, Starr had the definition replaced to the place sexual affair secure what Clinton did with Monica. Clinton did no longer be conscious the substitute in definitions and persisted to deny the sexual affair. In different words, Starr set a capture, yet Clinton grew to become into being careless and grew to become into parsing. Clinton's lie, that he did no longer something sexual with Monica, grew to become into irrelevant to the case by potential of Paula Jones who stated he careworn her 8 years formerly. in spite of if, Clinton paid dearly for the lie, and grew to become into exceedingly much kicked out of workplace. Gonzales would have lied to cover up dealings and regulations in the administration that have been opposite to the shape and different statutes. Testimony of others has indicated that US attorneys have been fired because of fact, between different issues, they did no longer prosecute Democrats while those US attorneys felt they did no longer have a solid sufficient case. Gonzales needed them prosecuted besides, because of fact they have been Democrats and this would harm the Democratic celebration's opportunities to benefit greater seats in Congress. it is going to pass devoid of asserting that such politicization of the Justice branch is undesirable for our usa. placed the shoe on the different foot, and make this a Democratic administration, and you will agree. Gonzales constantly parses his words on a great variety of the subject concerns that he's asked approximately. His very own testimony and statements have been contradictory in numerous very textile respects. The questions and concerns that Congress is probing rapidly relate to his activity and his activity overall performance; they don't seem to be approximately his greater desirable curricular activities. All lies are actually not equivalent, and if Clinton grew to become into concern to learn by potential of a definite prosecutor, particularly Gonzales could be

Answer 9

You said it yourself. Clinton's lying under oath was "no big deal" to Democrats. Well then, how can they [Democrats] hold anyone to that standard [integrity] if they are not willing to embrace it themselves.
